Possibility Storm: Aether Revolt Puzzle #3

Welcome back to Possibility Storm, the weekly MTG puzzle series, available exclusively through MTGCanada and PossibilityStorm.com.

We hope you enjoyed last week’s puzzle. We’ve got another for you today, so scroll down and have at it!

Also, for those of you considering becoming a Patron, Possibility Storm will be giving away a booster box of Amonkhet to randomly drawn Patron among all those who sign up by April 26. That’s also the first day of our Amonkhet seasonal leaderboard, so you’ve got lots of incentive to sign up before then. Links for Patreon are below the puzzle.

Before Shock revolves, cast Brutal Expulsion using UURR, returning Shock to your hand and dealing 2 damage to the Indulgent Aristocrat as it resolves. Dynavolt Tower’s ability triggers again and gives you 2 more energy for a total of 4. Thermo-Alchemist’s ability trigger, untapping it.

Activate Thermo-Alchemist, dealing 1 damage to the opponent. [+1 = 3]

Cast Shock again using R, targeting Indulgent Aristocrat, destroying it as it resolves. Dynavolt Tower’s ability triggers and gives you 2 more energy for a total of 6. Thermo-Alchemist’s ability trigger, untapping it.

Does something needs clarification? Check out the official Rules and Assumptions to see if your answer lies within.
